Poki‘s games are designed with simplicity in mind. Most titles feature clear instructions and intuitive mechanics, allowing you to jump right into the action within minutes. However, with such an extensive library, choosing what to play can be a daunting task.

To help you navigate this sea of options, we’ve spent countless hours testing games to bring you a curated list of the best experiences Poki has to offer.

12 of the best games available on Poki

Subway Surfers

Forget about installing Subway Surfers on your mobile device—you can now enjoy this iconic runner game directly on Poki. This isn’t a knockoff either, as it’s a genuine port of the hit game we all know from mobile.

In Subway Surfers, the premise is straightforward but addictive. You’ll find yourself on an endless sprint, dodging obstacles and weaving between trains while collecting stars. Power-ups scattered throughout the course offer temporary advantages, helping you navigate increasingly challenging sections. However, be warned; a single misstep ends your run, sending you back to the starting line.

Monkey Mart

Step into a quirky retail adventure where your customers—and even you—are monkeys. Don’t let the cute aesthetics fool you: Monkey Mart is a strategic whirlwind that will keep you on your toes.

As you progress through the game, keeping your shelves stocked becomes increasingly challenging. Your goal is to maintain customer satisfaction, but unexpected events can throw a wrench in your plans. Successfully navigating a day in this hectic marketplace is immensely satisfying, making Monkey Mart a standout title on Poki.

Vectaria.io

Minecraft enthusiasts will find themselves right at home in Vectaria.io, though this game packs more action than its blocky inspiration. Upon entering, you find yourself in a peaceful mode and after learning the basics, you can switch to survival.

The constant threats around the map forces players to adapt quickly and put their survival skills to use. While there’s a learning curve to master the controls, they’re intuitive enough for newcomers to grasp quickly. As you invest more time in Vectaria.io, you’ll unlock character customization options, allowing you to craft a unique in-game persona.

Make It Meme

Think you have the best meme game? Put your skills to the test in Make It Meme, a competitive mini-game that pits your humor against other Poki users.

Each round begins with a random meme image which you must caption creatively. After submitting your masterpiece, you’ll vote on other players’ creations. The competition unfolds over three rounds, with the wittiest meme-maker claiming victory and the coveted title of meme champion.

Level Devil

Level Devil is a platform game that keeps players guessing at every turn. When you begin a level, the path forward seems clear—but appearances can be deceiving.

As you move towards your objective, the environment reveals its true nature. The ground shifts unpredictably, creating new obstacles and challenges. While a jump-heavy strategy might work in the early stages, later levels demand more nuanced approaches and quick thinking.

Rainbow Obby

Another platformer in our lineup, Rainbow Obby lets you traverse colorful obstacle courses with your vehicle of choice. Many players opt for the bike, as it offers a balance of speed and control.

As you navigate the vibrant levels, you’ll collect coins that can be used to purchase upgrades. Need better jumping capabilities? Invest in a specialized bike. Rainbow Obby is more forgiving than some platformers, featuring frequent checkpoints that allow you to quickly resume after a fall.

Narrow One

For those craving classic multiplayer action, Narrow One delivers with its take on Capture the Flag. Armed with a bow and arrow combo and a melee weapon, you’ll work with your team to secure victory.

The goal is simple: Capture the enemy flag three times to win. However, success requires a delicate balance of offense and defense. Many teams fall into the trap of neglecting their own flag, making coordinated play crucial. From personal experience, focusing on defense, unless someone else is holding down, the fort often leads to success.

Escape from School

Blending escape room puzzles with platforming elements, Escape from School stands out among Poki‘s puzzle offerings. To break free from your educational prison, you’ll need to locate various puzzle pieces and unlock new areas of the map.

The game isn’t all about brain-teasers—you’ll also need to employ parkour skills to navigate certain sections. As you explore, keep an eye out for cosmetic items scattered throughout the school, which can be unlocked through short tasks or by watching ads.

Who is?

Who is? offers a text-based puzzle experience that challenges your deductive reasoning. As you progress through the game, you’ll interact with various characters and gather clues to solve increasingly complex mysteries.

While the initial levels ease you into the gameplay, the difficulty ramps up significantly as you advance. The game maintains a light-hearted tone throughout, peppered with pop culture references that add an extra layer of enjoyment for attentive players.

Temple Run 2

Temple Run 2 is another mobile gaming classic ported to Poki. Like its Poki counterpart Subway Surfers, this is an authentic version of the game you know and love.

Temple Run 2 kicks off with a brief tutorial covering the basics of obstacle evasion. As you sprint through ancient ruins, you’ll collect coins and activate power-ups to aid your escape. The game offers one free mistake, but a second error sees you caught by the pursuing ape. Compared to Subway Surfers, Temple Run 2 demands quicker reflexes and more focused attention.

Stickman Hook

Stickman Hook is a captivating skill-based game that puts your reflexes to the test. This Poki gem features a simple yet charming stickman character who must navigate through hundreds of increasingly difficult levels. Your goal: Guide your stretchy hero from point A to B, swinging and flipping past an array of colorful obstacles.

Stickman Hook eases players in with a gentle learning curve. The initial levels introduce basic swinging mechanics, allowing you to get a feel for the physics and timing. As you progress, the game gradually introduces new elements and more complex level designs, keeping the challenge fresh and engaging.

We Become What We Behold

Step into the shoes of a news photographer in We Become What We Behold, a thought-provoking point-and-click game that explores the power of media and social dynamics.

As you begin your journey in this game, you’ll quickly realize that your choices carry significant weight. Little differences can spiral into full-blown conflicts. Your task is to decide which moments to immortalize and which to leave unrecorded.
